Worldwide, Габен (Gabin 
, Габен 
) is a common predominantly masculine, but scarcely feminine first name. The first name Габен is characteristic of Cameroon, where it is quite a common principally boy's, but scarcely female name, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where it is quite a rare boy's name, and France. Much less frequently, Габен is the last name as well as the forename.
